Sul Sul, Gerbits! Today is another easy cookie. We are going to be making Banana Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies.
One thing you can do with bananas if you are not going to eat them right away, or they are ripe. Place them in the freezer. The ripe bananas are extremely sweet and easy to work with.
For this recipe, you are going to need:
- bananas
- chocolate
- oatmeal
- a little bit of sugar
The recipe will be down in the description below.
You are going to preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray. Or parchment paper.
Mash your bananas in a bowl. If you are using frozen bananas, it will take them a little bit to warm up.
Then mix in your unsweetened cocoa and oatmeal, until the mixture looks like cookie dough.
It will look dry at first, but after you mix it for a while it will start to look like cookie dough.
The recipe says to fold in any mix-ins after you add the oatmeal. This is where I added my sugar.
You are going to measure tablespoon sized cookies. And make sure that you flatten and mold them with your hands.
You want to flatten them because they will not form a cookie shape, while they are baking.
Bake the cookies for 8 minutes. Or until the bottoms are glossy.
These cookies were really good. Because I was in the need of something fast, and sweet. I was running low on flour and didn’t know what to make.
And I found this recipe and was like I have everything I need for this recipe. I will make it, and it was really good. I hope you guys like this recipe, make sure to like and subscribe for more recipes like this one in the future. Vadish, Dag Dag!

Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with non-stick foil or parchment paper.
- Mash 2 ripe bananas in a bowl, and then mix in up to 2 tbsp of unsweetened cacao powder and 1 cup of quick oats until a cookie dough-like batter is formed (the amount of oats you need depends on the size of your bananas, so start with 3/4 of a cup and add more as needed). The mixture will seem dry at first, but after a few minutes of mixing with a spoon, it will turn into a nice consistency.
- Fold in any mix-ins you plan on adding to the batter (I added a large handful of chocolate chips).
- Place about 15 clumps of your cookie dough mixture evenly on your baking sheet. Flatten and mold them with your hands to form “cookie” shapes (these cookies will not flatten or change shape with baking).
- Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
- Enjoy!!
